This is apparently a complete album, that Kanye just chose to never release. I have only listened to one track (On God Remix) of the leak but it sounded good. I won't link it here as I don't want to break Sopuli.xyz rules but it is out there. I ask that everybody respects the server we are on and also does not link it in this thread/community.
Track List
Intro / Every Hour / Selah (feat. Marsha Ambrosious)
LA Monster (feat. A$AP Ferg)

To make sure we are all on the same page, DO NOT LINK THE LEAK HERE. Do not link the entire album or any individual leaked tracks. We are on the Sopuli.xyz server and we need to make sure we respect the rules of the server.
What did he change though, that wasn’t already a growing wave?
Conscious rap has been a thing since the beginning of rap, 808s/ Cudis style, Yeezus/Death Grips… He gets credit for soul sampling, which can be seen plenty in RZAs work, and huge with Erick Sermons Music before Kanye was into it
And rap was already pop before 2010. Wayne was on every pop song remix in the c3 era
I just think dude gets to much credit for innovation because of his fame.
